I got mine in about 4 weeks. The AF1 is my second pair of By You, and I also have a Gulf Motorsports inspired pair of Nike Internationalist. Those ones were received in about 5 weeks time.

My AF1 High by you. Orange and blue, with my birth year on the strap. I wear them, but I also baby them!

I own these ones and I quite like them. I don’t play b-ball, I’m just attracted to kicks that aren’t the usual hyped up ones.

I picked up the Adidas adiFOM TRXN today at the outlet. Going to keep them safe for spring and summer, etc. Still looking to score a good deal on a set of Nike Pegasus Trail Gore-Tex.

Here’s a selection to try on and see what feels best for your foot.

Hoka One One Mach 5 and Bondi 8

New Balance Fresh Foam X Trail and Fresh Foam X More

Nike Zoom Fly series and the React Infinity

Adidas Ultraboost series and the Switch FWD

Keep in mind that having a proper width sole, and not one of those swoopy narrow ones will also help a ton. And the insoles, as mentioned by u/_khed, are imperative as well.

Ha! I’m 51 and there is no way in hell that someone is going to make me stop wearing my ISPA’S, Forum low’s, AF1’S or my Cosmic Unity 3’s.

Nope.

I think that you could try to diversify the collection.

Adidas, Asics, New Balance and Saucony make really killer shoes.

Lol, true. But I just love saying it. Especially with a seriously thick, fake french accent.

Twawaaaafele-uh. :D

Tough shit for those kids. They are not YOU. And they do NOT get to dictate what you or your family can afford, and they certainly do NOT get to dictate what you wear. u/kubbiebeef and u/PigWithAWoodenLeg are both right. If you give in over shoes, what’s next? Your jacket? Your backpack? Your hairstyle?

I know shit is hard enough in school, but never give in, and never surrender. Wear what YOU want to wear, and tell those twatwaffles to go pound sand.
